I am going to Antarctica in mid November and would ideally like to have a camera that can take XXL pictures.

The only currently available SLR that can take these is the Canon 1ds Mk 111, correct?

I know that the Sony A900 & Canon 5d Mk II are set to ship at the end of November but that will be too late.

Sony should be easy available in October!

And nobody mentioned the H3DII-50 50mp camera?

Isn't XXL 8000 x 5500 = 44 megapixels?

5D Mark II doesn't do that. If I'm allowed to say "only" 22mp and 5616 x 3744 pixels

Someone correct me. I looked up XXL on IS and it says 8000 x 5500?

1DS Mark III = 5616 x 3744
